Lenten Retreat at Villa Loyola Theme: ARE YOU KIDDING? Remembering and reclaiming the gifts of the child Jesus said “I’m telling you, once and for all, that unless you return to square one and start over like children, you’re not even going to get a look at the Kingdom, let alone get in. Whoever becomes simple and ele-mental again, like this child, will rank high in God’s kingdom.” (Mt 18, 2-5) In this retreat we will explore some habits of the heart intended to educate us into becoming childlike once again.

MESSAGE OF HIS HOLINESS POPE FRANCIS FOR THE TWENTY-FIFTH WORLD DAY OF
THE SICK 2017 Amazement at what God has accomplished: “The Almighty has done great things for me…” (Lk 1:49) Dear Brothers and Sisters, On 11 February next, the Twenty-fifth World Day of the Sick will be celebrated throughout the Church and in a special way at Lourdes. The theme of this year’s celebration is “Amazement at what God has accomplished: ‘The Almighty has done great things for me….’” (Lk1:49). Instituted by my predecessor Saint John Paul II in 1992, and first celebrated at Lourdes on 11 February 1993, this Day is an opportunity to reflect in particular on the needs of the sick and, more generally, of all those who suffer. It is also an occasion for those who generously assist the sick, beginning with family members, health workers and volunteers, to give thanks for their God-given vocation of accompanying our infirm brothers and sisters. This celebration likewise gives the Church renewed spiritual energy for carrying out ever more fully that fundamental part of her mission which includes serving the poor, the infirm, the suffering, the outcast and the marginalized. Even now, I am spiritually present at the grotto of Massabielle, before the statue of the Immacu-late Virgin, in whom the Almighty has done great things for the redemption of mankind. I express my closeness to all of you, our suffering brothers and sisters, and to your families, as well as my appreciation for all those in different roles of service and in healthcare institutions throughout the world who work with professionalism, responsibility and dedication for your care, treatment and daily well-being. I encourage all of you, the sick, the suffering, physicians, nurses, family members and volunteers, to see in Mary, Health of the Infirm the sure sign of God’s love for every human being and a mod-el of surrender to his will. May you always find in faith, nourished by the Word and by the Sacra-ments, the strength needed to love God, even in the experience of illness. Like Saint Bernadette, we stand beneath the watchful gaze of Mary. The humble maiden of Lourdes tells us that the Virgin, whom she called “the Lovely Lady”, looked at her as one person looks at another. Those simple words describe the fullness of a relationship. Bernadette, poor, illiterate and ill, felt that Mary was looking at her as a person. The Lovely Lady spoke to her with great respect and without condescension. This reminds us that every per-son is, and always remains, a human being, and is to be treated as such. The sick and those who are disabled, even severely, have their own inalienable dignity and mission in life. They never be-come simply objects. If at times they appear merely passive, in reality that is never the case.
Celebrate our Faith / Celebrate Us Join our celebration of the Sault Ste. Marie CWL and K of C councils on Friday, February 10, 2017, recogniz-ing our unique and common goals and accomplishments.
